Do you like taking pictures of different views?
Điểm: 40.0Gợi ý: Give a fuller, natural response: start with a clear topic sentence, then add one or two supporting details (what kinds of views you like and why). Use linking words for coherence and keep it under five sentences.
Ví dụ: Yes, I enjoy taking pictures of different views. For example, I often photograph city skylines and mountain landscapes because they show striking contrasts in light and texture. Also, I like experimenting with different angles and times of day to capture the best mood.
Do you prefer views in urban areas or rural areas?
Điểm: 15.0Gợi ý: Avoid saying you have no idea. Directly answer the preference (urban or rural) with a topic sentence, then give specific reasons and an example using linking words (because, so, for example). Keep it concise and natural.
Ví dụ: I prefer rural views because I enjoy open spaces and natural scenery. For example, wide fields and forests feel peaceful and are easier to photograph without distractions, so I can focus on composition and natural light.
Do you prefer views in your own country or in other countries?
Điểm: 25.0Gợi ý: Be precise: say whether you prefer views at home or abroad, then explain why with specific details or an example. Use linking words (for instance, because) and correct tense and grammar.
Ví dụ: I usually prefer views in other countries because I love discovering different cultures and landscapes. For instance, when I visited Japan I was fascinated by the contrast between tranquil temples and modern cityscapes, which made my photos more interesting.
× No, I don't have an idea.
✓ No, I don't have an idea about that.
The original sentence lacks a clear object; 'have an idea' typically requires specification (about what). Adding 'about that' clarifies the reference. Also 'No' is slightly odd here; a more natural reply would be 'No, I don't have an opinion' or 'I don't know.' Suggestion: use 'I don't know' or 'I don't have an opinion' when unsure.
× Yes, I liked another country.
✓ Yes, I liked a country I visited.
The question asks preference between views in own country or other countries, so a present preference is expected. The original 'I liked another country' is past tense and vague. Correction keeps past tense 'liked' but clarifies meaning by specifying 'a country I visited.' Better: use present tense 'I prefer views in other countries' or 'I like views in other countries' to match the question's tense. Suggestion: match the tense and be specific.
